“We continue our dance until the song ends, and we stay in the same position as she looks at the stars and I at her. I don’t need to see the stars when the most marvelous one is standing right in front of me with her arms around my neck.”

“Ciò che lui trovava stupefacente era il modo in cui gli uomini sembravano esaurire la propria essenza – esaurire la materia, qualunque fosse, che li rendeva quello che erano – e, svuotati di se stessi, trasformarsi nelle persone di cui un tempo avrebbero avuto pietà. Era come se, mentre la loro vita era ricca e piena, essi fossero, in segreto, stufi di se stessi e non vedessero l’ora di liberarsi del loro discernimento, della loro salute e di ogni senso delle proporzioni per passare all’altro io, il vero io: che era uno stronzo detestabile e completamente illuso. Era come se trovarsi in sintonia con la vita fosse qualcosa di accidentale che poteva capitare, certe volte, ai giovani fortunati; mentre, per il resto, era una cosa con la quale gli essere umani non riuscivano a rapportarsi. Che strano.”

“Whenever I heard that languid, beautiful melody, those days came back to me. It wasn’t what I’d characterize as a happy part of my life, living as I was, a balled-up mass of unfulfilled desires. I was much younger, much hungrier, much more alone. But I was myself, pared down to the essentials. I could feel each single note of music, each line I read, seep down deep inside me. My nerves were sharp as a blade, my eyes shining with a piercing light. And every time I heard that music, I recalled my eyes then, glaring back at me from a mirror.”

“I was raised as a Baptist in the Bible Belt of the South. Until the age of 37, I had never heard anyone teach or preach about the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Oh yes, I had heard those scriptures read, more aptly read over, and had read over them myself, but I had never heard anyone try to explain this amazing experience or even give it any credence.”

“Who would’ve thought that Mr. Looney Bin had such a soft side. I thought that I would for sure be dead by now.” He sits up until his lips almost brush mine. “I’d never kill you, because I don’t want to live in a world where you don’t exist.” Pressing his lips to mine, he cups my face to take me closer to him. And that feeling returns. That feeling I’ve refused to name so far. The feeling of those things flying around in my belly. I dare to do it now. Because I can no longer lie to myself. For the first time in my life, I think I know what the movies are always talking about. Butterflies.”
